God knows we suffered from it in our time in the top tier, but it was usually Big Six syndrome - “any 50-50 decision will always be given to the Big Six club”.
But today Burnley were robbed blind by two of the most appalling refereeing decisions you’d ever see. This time though there was no Big Six involvement, it was Leeds United who were the beneficiaries. Bamford’s penalty which ultimately won the match, was bad enough - it was a perfectly valid tackle - but the decision at the other end when despite the Leeds goalkeeper sticking his knee into the Burnley forward, a perfectly good goal is scored by Burnley and is disallowed as the referee rules that it was the goalkeeper who had been fouled. If it wasn’t a goal it was definitely a penalty. What it definitely wasn’t is a Leeds free-kick. Disgraceful decision.
How can decisions like that stand when they can consult a tv replay to check if they’ve made the right decision? There is no excuse for those mistakes in the age of VAR. Dyche had every right to be incandescent which he was. In their position, Burnley do not need such refereeing incompetence. [Post edited 27 Dec 2020 23:23]

I saw the Leeds keeper incident, pathetic, 50 50 challenge and the precious keeper wins a free kick |  |

& handball, whilst I was fine with the Burnley second yesterday Moyes was correct in that it should have been VAR’d out with the current interpretation as given. | | | |

Disgusting day for football really to see that. | |

It's not just the EPL as we know only too well from some of the baffling officiating 'decisions' against us this term
Wonder what the conspiracy theorists say ? Is it mass media related ? | |
| Pro free speech and alternative opinions -
Anti gang-bullying and poor modding thereof -
Will always make a stand against those who consistently choose to turn a blind eye |

It's interesting though Andy.
I used to think it was always us-with our natural paranoia -but Burnley seem to have been shat on a they have before.
They're a miracle club really to be mixing it with the "big boys".It's something our club should still be doing and I admit I have not got over it as yet | |

The refereeing decisions in that game demonstrated that the footballing hierarchy have now welcomed back Leeds United into the 'big club' category. | | | |

Yes indeed.The love in is led by Gary Neville ,of all people,as the two clubs detest each other and both sets of fans clearly miss the hurling of abuse.
Sad really | |

Worthy of discussion.
 Why Swansea City ? : Getting inside the referee’s head 8th Mar 2021 10:00In the light of recent events we reproduce our article on bias in refereeing. Absolutely undeniable and backed up by professionals. This was written after the Bristol City away game earlier on this season. The facts though will always be the same. The likes of a ranting Warnock after Saturday, if he has the intelligence, should take note.  5
